> The fact that corporations and billionaires are so anti-union and engage in regular conduct like this demonstrates that unions are pro-worker and ideal for the balance needed in the US and across the globe.

I think there are a lot of things that demonstrate that unions are pro-worker and ideal for the balance needed in the US and across the globe, but that isn't one of them.

Corporations & billionaires are so anti-union because they perceive unions as reducing their profits, which is not necessarily the same thing as them being pro-worker or ideal.

You'll find that, outside of the defense industry, corporations & billionaires generally don't like wars, for exactly the same reason; that doesn't really suggest anything good about wars.

> The fact that corporations and billionaires are so anti-union and engage in regular conduct like this demonstrates that unions are pro-worker and ideal for the balance needed in the US and across the globe.

No, that's incorrect. The corporations could also be anti-nuclear war, this would not make it good for workers.

A better example is to look at countries with functional unions and functional capitalism, like the Netherlands, Denmark and others.

The quality of life won by union conflicts with capital owners is a measurable fact.

Unions can be implemented and be useless for the workers (an example for the most part is Greece), or maybe too demanding like France. It's up to the participants of the union to shape it as a net contributor to society. The point is that each individual member has a significant say in how a union operates, meanwhile in corporations, even middle management can be completely powerless.
The intro video sequence for the 7 May iPad Pro 2024 release presentation.

I found it disturbing.

I get it: this huge collection of fun objects is smooshed together to obtain a smooshed (very thin) iPad Pro.

But the imagery associates destruction of creative tools with iPad.

And what's with the graphic slaying of emoji creatures? Little kids would freak out.

Ugh.
this sounds awesome, can i see?
I find your site and sales pitch interesting but honestly, I can't help but feel like a schmuck for giving you 20 USD for this. It feels akin to giving money to Tai Lopez or some other guru selling a pipe dream.

No offense to you, I want to like what you're offering, but I can't excuse it. Do you have a PDF of the first chapter or the intro at least? I want to see a bit before I send you 20 bucks.

Did you forget the Game Boy era or even the DS days where 3-7 models of each were released?
Good idea. But the focus on algorithms is maybe overkill for at least 80% to 90% of companies. Perhaps lay out some subset of the business requirements or problems the company is working on and ask them to turn that into working code is more suitable
What is the mechanism under which houses would be more affordable if employees had more money thanks to the unions? Real estate (and by extension rents) will take up any available slack on income.

They aren't functioning as the judicial branch. As part of the responsibilities of the executive branch, they have to decide when there's a problem, so they can decide if they need to execute. Indeed, the next step here is to take Apple to court.
"Luxury" often includes some amount of pure status symbols added to the package, and often on what is actually a sub-par experience. The quintessential luxury tech device were the Vertu phones from just before and even early in the smartphone era - mid-range phones tech and build quality-wise, with encrusted gems and gold inserts and other such bling, sold at several thousand dollars (Edit: they actually ranged between a few thousand dollars all the way to 50,000+).

But the definition of luxury varies a lot by product category. Still, high-end and luxury are separate concepts, which ven when they do overlap.
In principal, yes.

As to my book,

- I'm not sure whether 1500$ is good enough in London

- you'll skip the foreign language learning (a time-wise plus AND a minus in terms of culture and, possibly, open-mindedness)

- we're still talking 100k$ of difference for a few ranks higher (top 10 instead of top 30 among maybe 500 good ones)
I just chugged 128gb of ddr4 LRDIMMs into my old xeon server. It worked flawlessly.
Ooh yeah. One more lane will fix it. One more lane, one more road, and all your traffic woes will end.
Based on the payload the author describes, it does look like an XSS.

The server response probably injected the “continue” parameter into a <meta http-equiv=“refresh” content=”0: url=…” />. Google’s bug bounty team likely would have adjusted the reward downward if it was not an XSS.

I would be very interested in a more detailed write-up, if you have the time (or have one already).
After I started my first startup, I had dreams of an inbox full of love from users, wild tech crunch reviews, and a bank account trending exponentially up.

Alas, that’s all it is. A dream.

No one will use your startup's products or services.

“One of the biggest ironies about this business is that there are lots of people who want to start companies, but that doesn’t necessarily equate with the number of people who are voracious users of new products or services,” says Ben Dover, news director at Startups Weekly.

The only thing a founder can do

Chris P Bacon first launched Sofa So Good as a side hustle using his own blog, then as a bootstrapped business seeling on Amazon, then as a traditionally VC backed company.

There is no algorithm that suggests that sofas with built in motivational coaches cheering on you will be successful. Even Big Tech are unable to predict which products users will love and which they won’t.

In his final advice to me, Bacon offers this: “I would say to try the traditional route first. If you can’t get traction with angels or VCs, then consider doing it small scale self funded. If your startup does well from word of mouth, you can go back to angels or VCs and say ‘look, it’s a proven seller.’”

Guess I’ll get to work.
Then the lower price point of the iPad should entice you more now.

FFI? I don't recall stating Rust is less expressive than C, the language looses its notorious "memory safe" feature as unsafe is called often when performing low level sys calls.

unless you are absolutely talking about web development, this is not true at all.
I assume this language is named after Jolie in Avatar The Last Airbender? (https://avatar.fandom.com/wiki/Zhu_Li_Moon - the pronunciation is the same)
These are consumer-grade mobile and laptop chips. That are going into products that won't get sold in the US anyway.
Oh, and other Chinese companies, that do sale their products in the US, like Lenovo or Oppo, can get these same chips no problem.

So all this is doing is harming Intel and Qualcomm, while incentivizing Huawei to invest even more in domestic chips.
FreeBSD Journal – Development Workflow and CI
Arm is an ISA, not a family of processors. You may expect Apple chips and Graviton to be wildly different, and perform completely different in the same scenario. In fact, most Arm cpus also have specific extensions that are not found in other manufacturers. So yes, while both recognize a base set of instructions, thats about it - expect that everything else is different.
I know, amd64 is also technically an ISA, but you have 2 major manufacturers, with very similar and predictable performance characteristics. And even then, sometimes something on AMD behaves quite differently from Intel.

For most devs, doing crud stuff or writing high-level scripting languages, this isn't really a problem. For some devs, working on time-sensitive problems or with strict baseline performance requirements, this is important. For devs developing device drivers, emulation can only get you so far.
Do you believe that is really the reason car makers refuse to implement CarPlay? It does feel strange, this stubborness, I can't see how the can deliver the best technical solution for their customers without implementing CarPlay and Android Auto.

That doesn’t seem to hold actually. My NAS/VM host runs 14nm Skylake and I see zero reason to upgrade. I don’t care that the die size is larger - I’m never going to see it. Power consumption is also pretty reasonable.
You can also make reasonable (not excellent, not terrible) brandy this way by putting vodka and oak wood shavings of a suitable kind into an ultrasound machine.
Sure. They also pledged to support Chromebooks for 10 years. My point being is that I don't think they'll be clawing back their new hardware support windows anytime soon. Their data indicates that these devices were used well beyond their initial support window metrics so it was in their, and their users, best interest to keep them updated as long as they possibly could. 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security updates was always the weak link in their commitment to security. And this applies to all of their devices including the A series - something I don't see other Android OEM's even matching.

BTW, my daily driver is an iPhone 13 and I was coming from an iPhone X. So I'm well aware of the incredible support Apple provides its phones. Although, I would still like to see an 8+ year promise from them.
It will last more than a few years, AND it’s marketed so you want to spend extra.
It’s mostly because of laziness and a hostility toward the idea of “correctness” in language use, and it goes back many, many decades. See John Simon’s book Paradigms Lost (from
1981!) for a brutally amusing take on these common errors.

When it becomes socially unacceptable to insist on standards and correctness, people either don’t learn how to write properly - or they are cowed into silence when making corrections.
Directly contradicting your opening sentence, no less.

At least cpu's haven't been adhering to Moore's Law for a few years now.
Another week, another paper that thinks they can revive recurrent networks. Although this time the father of LSTM is a co-author, so this paper should not come as a surprise. Sadly, the results seem to indicate that even by employing literally all tricks of the trade, their architecture can't beat the throughput of flash-attention (not by a long shot, but that is not surprising for recurrent designs) and, on top of that, it is even slower than Mamba, which offers similar accuracy at lower cost. So my money is on this being another DOA architecture, like all the others we've seen this year already.
With a browser I can use the original HyperCard via Infinite Mac website. I mention this in my comment. It's insanely great.

GDP growth figures published by e.g. the IMF are not just verbatim replications of what a country says. It comes from extensive analysis, verification, cross referencing against other data, and validation. It's why IMF data will often differ not only from what a country says, but even from what other organizations such as e.g. the World Bank or UN might say, as the latter are also independently carrying out their own similar processes. But all figures tend to fall pretty closely, because under this scrutiny it's practically impossible to meaningfully fudge things.
Not quite true, as others have pointed out. However, the installation instructions say this:

> While there have been reports that pyspread can be used on OS X, OS X is currently unsupported (can you help?).

I think that would make many non-technical users uncomfortable.
This. Writing a parser in Zig is so simple. Just allocate once, and then start writing your parser.

One allocator for parser, one for scanner. One for type allocation. Keep them all for semantic analysis. Write the output renderer (binary/language). Deallocate.

In this whole process, it makes it so easy to not think about memory anymore. Just enjoy writing your program.
That’s awesome, I hope to collect a Google bug bounty one day
Dumb near-sighted move.

Short term, it's a minor annoyance for China.

Yet the primary effect it will have is for China to become less dependent on foreign chips faster.
So the same software exists on multiple platforms, there are no legacy or hardware compatibility considerations, interoperability considerations, no budget considerations, and the users have a choice in what they use?

I.e the same functionality exists with no draw backs and money was no object.

And they chose Windows? Seriously why?
Huawei is basically Chinese government's military tech arm, so a few reasons might be - increased Chinese military support for Russia, cold war tension ratcheted, US view China as very weak right now and want to increase the pressure

Depends. If there is a minimum value, every value will appear, and you don't want dups, then this is doable. Say the streams are of natural numbers starting with 1, and every natural number will appear within each stream. The obvious thing to do is to not even bother doing anything with the streams except to drain them, and just write the natural numbers in order to stdout! Yes, I'm chuckling.

It's a trivial toy problem. It's not a useful problem to solve. But the question may be there just to get you to think of just this, and to ask questions.

Recurrence is less of issue with really large models training than it is with medium sized models. Medium sized transformer models are generally not trained with sequence parallelism, but sequence parallelism is getting more common with transformer training. And sequence parallelism is same for transformer or recurrent model.

For really large models, it is in fact easier to achieve peak flops because computation required scales faster than memory bandwidth required(square vs cube).
This is a great analysis that gave me a lot to think about.

I've always loved the way Go's packages work. With care, I can organize large codebases that end up feeling so clean and nice to deal with.

I usually get to pick all my own package names, so the issues you bring up are manageable for me. But you explained them well, and I can imagine the frustration of inheriting public API packages that were not carefully designed.

And this one is a perennial little naming hiccup:

> Who among us hasn't wanted to shadow the name `url` or `path`?

I still prefer Go's packages to other languages' ways of code organization, but I think you convinced me that giving packages their own separator (and not sharing '.') might have been a better design. Though strangely, as you mentioned, any other separator is uglier.
> Instead of the same old talking point, what solution do you propose?

Unnecessarily hostile opening, but full separation of powers as written in the Constitution.

> Should the executive branch agency make decisions by fiat, without due process?

It should not be adjudicating any kind of legal controversy. That is not the role of the executive branch.

> The use of due process doesn't make them a judiciary; it's just a more fair way to make decisions within their purview.

It's very often worse. Executive agencies often have legislative functions, i.e. APA rulemaking, as well judicial functions, e.g. in this matter. The SEC is another one, (see SEC vs Jarkesy currently before SCOTUS).

> Should we move every such judgment out of the executive branch's hands?

Yes.

> But the heart of this issue is, as is well known: There aren't nearly enough capacity in the judicial branch to handle all that work. It's a trick to prevent lawful and needed regulation from happening by severely cutting their capacity.

Total BS.
Hey, you learned and corrected yourself, dont be so hard on yourself mate.
The build quality of Apple laptops is still pretty unmatched in every price category.

Yes, there are 2k+ laptops from Dell/Lenovo that match and exceed a similarly priced MacBook in pure power, but usually lack battery life and/or build quality.

The most terrifying concept is still the good old undefined behavior. How is it possible that a simple `gets()` call can pop a reverse shell and empty your bank account?

Apple's New iPad Pro Ad Sparks Outrage in Japan
Apple's new iPad Pro promotional video, released by CEO Tim Cook on Twitter, has sparked controversy among Japanese users. The video depicts various creative tools being destroyed by a giant press machine, consolidating their functions into the thin iPad Pro.
Many Japanese users, who have a strong cultural attachment to cherishing objects, expressed discomfort and disappointment in response to the video. They felt it disrespected their appreciation for musical instruments, cameras, and art supplies.
Comments from Japanese users flooded in, criticizing the video for "looking down on analog creativity" and expressing sadness at seeing creative tools being destroyed. The backlash highlights a cultural disconnect between Apple's intended message and the values held by its Japanese user base.

I wouldn't bet on this long term, since it fully relies on Google hardware, and Google's long-term strategy is to remove your freedom piece by piece, cash on it, not to support it.

The real alternative is GNU/Linux phones, Librem 5 and Pinephone, without any ties to greedy, anti-freedom corporations.
Most CPUs do not document the details of the cache controllers, so typically you cannot know when correctable errors happened.

Only when non-correctable errors happen, which should be very seldom (e.g. less than one per year), the CPU generates a machine error exception, for which it can be identified that the cause was a (multiple-bit) error in one of the internal cache memories.

Therefore you could sense only extremely-high radiation levels, which would also require a customized OS kernel to recover from exceptions without crashes. Such great radiation levels could be much easier detected with some discrete reverse-biased diodes, which are also easier to place wherever the radiation exists, keeping the microcontroller or whatever device records the radiation levels either away or shielded from the radiation.
He didn't say it would be cheap affordable housing. He said it "will relieve price pressure on existing, overpriced older housing". Which makes sense. Normally new buildings are the luxury housing and over time, as they become outdated, they become the affordable housing. Building new "affordable housing" is a fools errand, since it costs almost as much to build as luxury housing. You just build more housing period and let nature take its course over the decades.
